    The male in overalls the last picture is Les Marjaram he worked in the old machine shop and was the senior shop steward I believe, nice bloke easy to talk to, If I remember correctly he resided up Gonerby.
    I don’t recognise the male with glasses in the second picture, he might have been out of the drawing office.

      The male in the last photo was indeed Les Marjoram – my father!. After many years living at Heathfield Road (known then as ‘The Flat Tops) he moved to Great Gonerby where he lived until his death in 2006.
